Hi all,
For the sake of making this song no hassle to play, I’ve tabbed it out in
standard tuning (as seen above). If you really wanted to add a little more
flair, you could tune down to Eb standard which would allow you to play the
Eb chord at two different octaves shown here:
[Verse]
Gb Ab Ebm Ebm
E|---3-----5-----7-----0---|
B|---3-----5-----8-----0---|
G|---4-----6-----9-----0---|
D|---5-----7-----9-----2---|
A|---5-----7-----7-----2---|
E|---3-----5-----------0---|
This would also open up the chorus to be played with simple open chords
as seen here:
[Chorus]
Db Ab B Gb
E|---2-----0-----0-----3---|
B|---3-----2-----1-----0---|
G|---2-----2-----0-----0---|
D|---0-----2-----2-----0---|
A|---------0-----3-----2---|
E|---------------------3---|
